In this work, it has been demonstrated through experiments that Long Range Dependence (LRD) in internet traffic is indeed affecting the queueing performance. Queueing performance is being degraded as the self-similarity of the packet arrival process increases. Here, the link buffer capacity and queueing delay exhibits super-linear relationship. This in turn has led to the proposal of resource provisioning strategy to boost the queueing performance. The inherent self-similar nature of the internet made the possibility of carrying voice traffic accompanied by voice quality degradation. Self-similar or variable nature of packet delay process implies voice quality degradation due to inter packet arrival variations. Delay and delay variation (jitter) behave erratically due to the self-similar nature of the packet arrival and delays. As the self-similarity of the packet round trip delay increases, TCP throughput performance is degraded. Copyright © 2006, Australian Computer Society Inc.
